Commercial Description:
It is called the "model of meter" among beers. All other pilsners are a better or worse attempt to copy the original - the first ever Pilsner Urquell. Its unparalleled exceptionality is guaranteed by the same recipe dating from 1842.

On tap. Pours deep golden with a generous creamy white head. Malty aroma, grass. Nice malty flavour and quiet a bit of Saaz hops blended nice together.

Draught (500 ml) at Hilpeä Hauki, Helsinki, Finland. Clear golden colour with small white head. Grainy, malty and hayish aroma. Malty flavour with great Czech hoppiness. Excellent Pilsener.

Pours golden with a white head. Nose is skunky. Perfect level of hop taste for a pils with a faint note of malt. The source of imitation for all American macro lagers; they all pale in comparison to the original.

33cl bottle poured into a footed pilsner. Sparkling straw with quite a bit of fizzy white head. Aroma is skunky hops. Flavor is very hoppy. Finish is long and bitter. Not horrible but not great.

Aroma of caramel and floral hops. Golden pour with creamy head. Flavor has some caramel, biscuit, toffee and light hops. Palate is creamy and well carbonated. Kinda reminds me of an English Bitter, but not overpasteurized like so many ESBs.

Pours standard off gold lager, white foamy head. Taste is sharply hoppy, sweet malty and vegetable-like, with a moderate carbonation. Finishes fairly bitter dry hops. Nice lager.

This is the best you-can-get-it-everywhere beer I’ve ever had (which isn’t saying much, but still). Skunky, a nice amount of hoppy bitterness. Drinkable.
